Moog Regina - clean and organized

Station 3 on the Sub 37 After mating the front-panel PCBs to the internal chasis-mount PCBs, Regina (seen here) uses test voltages and reference frequencies to complete parameter calibrations before installing the boot loader.

Scope detail

Rick's desk in the Engineering Department, where lots of circuit board layout and design happens. This collection of vintage test equipment (including a Wavetek Function Generator and a pair of Tektronix 2465B's) inspires the electronic development and design of new products.

Steve Shields Theremin

Mr Hz

This is the calibration room for the Etherwave Theremin. Steve (seen here) is one of Moog's longest-standing employees, and has been around since the Big Briar days when he was working directly with Bob Moog. Steve has calibrated every Etherwave Theremin produced since 2001.

Thanks to the good people at Moog for sharing their workspaces with us.
